A few things from Jan and Feb


Andrew was getting more excited about football, and since there is no Utah team we went with Rachel's two favorite teams from growing up in Chicago and living in Pittsburgh. We taught that you become a fan win or lose (da Bears!). But unfortunately we were able to put that to the test this year. It was tough watching the Bears lose, and even worse watching them lose to Green Bay. But it was still fun watching a couple of games. It was fun seeing Andrew get into it. And at least we had the Steelers in the Superbowl to cheer for, but also ultra-sucky to see Green Bay win. We had to play a few scenes from Wipeout to help change the mood. Nothing can make you laugh like seeing people bouncing all over the place on the big balls.

So Andrew had an ear infection, and opted for the liquid medicine over a pill. It really made us laugh to see the dosage a boy of Andrews age needed to take in liquid form. It was like the 2L size. What a laugh. It might be hard to tell it's size from the picture, but if you compare the cutting board in the background, it should give a sense of scale.

Our little lady Allison. Going to town on chocolate batter, and lining up animals as Noah would.
